The Workshop

In 2015, as part of my Wesleyan University senior thesis, I proposed and founded a 1,800 sq/ft student-run shared creative space.

For those who were not enrolled in studio art classes, access to Wesleyan's artistic resources was severely limited, a problem that disproportionally affected low-income students. This was part of my solution:

The Workshop opened in Spring 2016 and is currently run by a student board. It can facilitate gallery showings, AV exhibits, large group-work, film editing, music recording, woodworking, screenprinting, experimental instrument soldering, and much, much more.
